Turkey Cookies

I made these for Thanksgiving this year and they turned out so cute!!

For 10 turkeys you will need:
90 Candy Corn
20 Double Stuffed Oreo Cookies
10 Whopper
10 Reese's Peanut Butter Cup
1 Tube of black piping gel
1 tube of white icing
Yellow and red food coloring
2 plastic Ziplock bags
Mix red and yellow food coloring with some of the icing to create your desired orange. Then put that into a plastic bag and set it aside for later. Do the same for a thing of red.

Create the tail using 1 Oreo cookie and 6 Candy Corns. Gently pull apart just one side of the Oreo. Put a good amount of icing in between the two sides. This will help the Candy Corn stay. Place 6 Candy Corn (white side down) in between the cookie.

Take your white icing and squeeze a generous amount onto the top back of an Oreo cookie. Take the other Oreo and put the bottom into the icing to have it stand up. If it doesn't stand, add more icing! Once you have it stand put it up against something so it doesn't fall until the icing is dry. I use a thick book.

Take your knife and cut off the very bottom of your peanut butter cup so you have a flat surface. Put icing on the bottom of it the bigger flat. Bump it up against the bottom and back of your Oreo cookies.

Next take your Whopper and squeeze more icing on it on one side. Place the whopper on top of the Peanut Butter Cup to make your head.

Find a piece of Candy Corn that has a nice big white end. Using your sharp knife cut the color off leaving you with the white end. Place some icing on it and stick it on your whopper as the beak.

Put some frosting on the back of a Candy Corn and place it on the side of the Peanut Butter Cup with the small end pointing up. Do this on each side for the wings.

Take your icing and place two white dots as eyes. Get your tube of black piping gel and place a black dot on each eye to make them come alive.

Grab your bag of already created orange frosting. Cut a very small hole in the corner of the bag. Now, pipe feet.
Grab your bag of already created red. Cut a very small hole in the corner of the bag. Pipe a strip under the nose for a gobble.  Now you are done! It is that simple!!
